Description

These beautiful Mid century dining chairs with black vinyl seat pads were designed and manufactured by Greaves and Thomas during the 1960s. The chairs exhibit a strong Scandinavian influence and have seat pads in stylish black vinyl that complements the teak wood just perfectly.

Greaves & Thomas was a London based company with a history dating back to the early 1900’s. In the early years the company specialised in lounge furniture and upholstery. By the mid 20th century the company was producing a range of high end contemporary furniture – including sideboards, armchairs and even bedroom mirrors.

By the mid 1950’s and 60’s Greaves & Thomas, like many other British companies, hired trained designers to create contemporary furniture. Walter Cornell designed many pieces for the company during this time, his work featured clean lines and a Danish influence. In 1967 Greaves & Thomas was purchased by Schreiber to add quality and prestige to their furniture offering.

The seat pads are in super condition as we’ve had them recovered by a professional furniture restorer.
